Bath resealing in Shawbirch, done in place

Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Fresh joints make the whole room look cleaner, and they keep water out. Typical jobs include a messy previous reseal and old sealant that looks dirty, on kitchen worktops & sinks, wet rooms and baths.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

When to call us in Shawbirch

Even good sealant eventually discolours, especially in a busy family bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Silicone smeared on tiles

Before you book anyone

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

10 questions to ask before you book

Shawbirch: your questions answered

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Shawbirch.

Why does mould come back so fast?

Typically poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.

What areas do you cover?

We cover the whole UK, including Shawbirch and the rest of Telford and Wrekin. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll offer you dates.

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

How long does resealing take?

Usually a couple of hours, plus curing time.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

When we’d advise against a repair

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

  • Kitchen worktops & sinks

Landlord and trade work in Shawbirch

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes about two hours for a bath. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Keeping it looking good

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Wipe the joints dry after use

Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use to keep mould away.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
